The response to the event has been very very positive and this is the first time I have come across anything negative. We were overwhelmed by the response we had from speakers and could not accommodate everyone in the plenary, hence their being so many speakers on the panel debate at the end. I agree with your comments about the email you were sent and this will be addressed. We have a limited number of tickets that we allocate FOC to delegates after which point we contact people directly to attend the event. I am happy to discuss the matter further with you and you can contact me via the email address above or via my direct line 0161 817 6675. If you do decide to come to the event, I’d like to meet with you and maybe discuss a more favourable pricing structure for delegates. It’s unfortunate you missed out on the free bloggers spaces I was giving away, I think it would have been great to have you blogging about the event. It would still be great to have your input on the event but I will leave that up to you. Despite the fact that the event has clearly upset you, I am pleased you have this blog as you have bought this issue to my attention. Aisha Anke,

However you have not addressed some of the main concerns. Correct me if I'm wrong, but I feel that 1. E-mail addresses were collected on the site. The mail that Paul sent to them is not straightforward in its wording - I might even say it's a lie. He is clearly not working on a policy but is trying to sell me a ticket. 2. When running a "Digital Engagement" event you should have some basic knowledge of who you are dealing with. To try and sell tickets to people like Will Perrin, who is really somebody you'd want to ask to be speaking at your event, is quite rude. 3. When running a "Digital Engagement" event you should have some basic idea of the tools you are using to market your event. If your organisation is really interested in Digital Engagement, and in listening to people who are working on projects right now, I could give you a whole set of ideas which came out of our shared experience at rebootbritain - an event which had most of the people you have approached for this event. Thanks for your response Aisha.
